Chapter 36 Luoyang Mansion (10)

"Brother, this Nancheng District is good, but it is just a wealthier county town, which is not as good as the big cities like Qingdao and Ping'an. Even the old capital Dongfang Port is not inferior." Today, the wind is sunny and cloudless, Jin Zhennan took three or four of his confidants to wander around the streets, looking at the market scene while looking for industries that can be purchased. This will be a boy who once worked for people in big cities, and he said it is indeed good. Qingdao, Ping'an focuses on financial and trade, and the other focuses on industrial manufacturing. It is extremely prosperous. The urban area has a population of more than 100,000. It is indeed a large city in the east coast.

Compared with the above two places, Nancheng District, which is both county-level administrative districts, is much inferior. It has been in the hands of the Spanish for too long, and it is deep inland and has no foundation. Although the East Coast people have been investing in and constructing over the years, urban development still has to be a gradual process, which cannot be achieved overnight. Not to mention the safety of Qingdao, Ping An, and in the foreseeable future, even Shanghai, Changshun, Shunhua, Jingjiang, Niuzhuang, Yancheng and other cities will firmly press the Nancheng District on their backs, and they will be more than one step ahead in terms of population size and social development level.

Of course, Nancheng District also has its own advantages, that is, it is backed by the big tree of Luoyang Prefecture, which is so cool! Do you really think that the construction costs of the new capital allocated by the central government every year are fake? Do you really think that the Luoming Highway, Luoming Railway, Luoshang Railway, Luoshang Railway, Luoyan Highway, and Luoyan Railway that are being planned or have been built do not exist? Do you really think that businessmen, soldiers, scholars, and scientists who come to settle down and buy property with their families?

Beicheng District accepts official staff, Yuquan District accepts scholars and cultural figures, Luoyi District is a gathering place for corporate headquarters, gathering all kinds of business elites, Mingjing District accepts leisure and elderly care dignitaries, Nancheng District brings the most middle class, and is the core and backbone of a city. Maybe the starting point is low enough, but the development speed is still faster than that of ordinary places? Is there another Shendu District forgotten? This... Is the wilderness ridge also the capital? Well, the development positioning there is not very clear, so let's talk about it later.

"Nancheng District is the capital and the capital, do you understand?" Jin Zhennan said earnestly: "This dynasty is moving the capital, and it is normal for this place to be a little simpler. It must not be underestimated. Besides, Nancheng District already has tens of thousands of people, and people are still coming in. For example, what's strange about us's great development in the future?"

"Brother is talking about it." Several uneducated rough men nodded.

They had arrived at a market, crowded and noisy. There were many stalls outside the market making snacks, and everyone was a little hungry, so they sat down, ordered meat patties, and started to eat milk tea.

Two black-skinned patrolmen with rifles swept their eyes. After seeing that they were all still in a proper manner, they did not come to find fault and left. Luoyang Prefecture is the new capital, and the world is attracting attention. Nancheng District, as the most suitable destination for ordinary people, naturally attracted all kinds of "talents" to come. These people have complex identities and have a nonsense that they don't want to mention to others. Can pirates tell you in person how I did what I did back then? After successfully washing it out, some people think about the business development of Nancheng District, intending to squeeze into the upper class and slowly whitewash the original black money.

As police officers who deal with criminals all day long, they can still see the temperament of these "talents". However, they don't want to be troublesome. Since they dare to appear in front of you in a noble way, they naturally have a clean life experience and can't find any criminal records. It's useless to find someone to make trouble. Maybe they can even make you mess up.

However, they are unwilling to provoke these people. One premise is that these guys have already washed up and are planning to change their lifestyle. But they are never ruthless in punishing those thieves or violent crimes. It should be noted that this is the Nancheng District, one of the six districts of Luoyang Prefecture. If the public security environment is not good, wouldn’t it be a slap in the face of those big men in the North City District?

There is a detention center in the southwest corner of Nancheng District. There are currently more than a hundred criminals to be sentenced. These people have a hard time living there. According to the jokes compiled by the prisoners who entertain themselves, "As soon as they enter the door, they are frightened, they take off all without saying a word, three meals of prison are not full, the police on all sides of the walls are on guard, and all the people come to report, the relatives do not recognize them but only discipline, forget all the seven emotions and six desires, remember all the eight surveillance rules, and not a friend who has not arrived, it is really impossible to kill them with one shot."

Of course, there were also some more awesome prisoners who made up another joke: "As soon as they entered the cell, they were frightened, and they were talking and laughing after two days. Three meals were delivered on time. They were sent to the public on time. They were covered by all over the world. They got up at six o'clock and went to bed at nine o'clock. They were less than two taels of wine and meat in seven days. They saw eight big words every day. They were still crying after a long battle. It was really bad, so they were shot and pulled down."

However, the fate of these people is obvious as long as they look at their destination: prisoners who honestly accept the transformation can go to Chile and South Africa to reclaim wasteland, where the conditions are relatively better, and the chance of survival is greater. Criminals who are not honest and slick, haha, the place to go is hard! Generally, they are deserted islands covered with tropical rainforests in the Rabaul Management Committee. They cut down trees and reclaim wastelands on them, and often face attacks from poisonous snakes and beasts and natives. The mortality rate is very high. Prisoners and discipliners are not good at plagues. They naturally know how to properly and legally deal with these disobedient thorns. It's ridiculous that they think they are heroes and chat and laugh when they die. It's really pitiful and lamentable.

"Let's go after you finish eating." More than half an hour later, watching everyone boil a basin of water, twenty large cakes, and several pots of milk tea were wiped out. Jin Zhennan threw down a few silver dollars on the table. At this time, the gold and silver coins and paper money were still circulating at the same time and there was no one to find money, so she went out directly.

The place he was going to is Yuqing Palace, the Taoist holy land, which is the most prosperous religious place in the Nancheng District. Anyway, there is nothing to do in the afternoon, so it is better to go and see it and open your eyes.

When Jin Zhennan and his group arrived, there were already many people in front of the Yuqing Palace gate, which was very crowded. Several of his subordinates also squeezed over and planned to go in and take a look. Jin Zhennan signaled them to go by themselves, but he started walking around him.

The popularity of Yuqing Palace was actually not beyond his expectations. Although he believed in Buddhism, he had been on the East Coast for so long and knew that this dynasty was worshipped and Taoist priests wandered in all walks of society and had been closely intertwined with the lives of the people, and their status was unbreakable.

Just like the bustling crowd in front of the Yuqing Palace, they came to participate in various religious ceremonies not to seek liberation and gain enlightenment, but because Taoism has really penetrated into their lives, believing that the Heavenly Lord can make their families safe, their children reproduce, have enough food and clothing, study successfully, and even avoid disasters and obtain blessings.

Buddhism actually says that Jin Zhennan is not unfamiliar with these things. But unlike Buddhism, Taoism in the East Coast talks about retribution in the present life, not in the next life. Taoism encourages people to achieve better life and greater achievements through various hard work, which has great positive significance for the spiritual shaping of the entire country and nation. Jin Zhennan has also thought about the reason why Buddhism, which emphasizes cause and effect, and reincarnation, does not prosper on the East Coast. This is probably the reason why the people of the East Coast are not prosperous. The people of the East are as high as the sun rises, and the spirits are extremely high. The stories of their ancestors working hard to create foundations inspire them. It is natural that it is normal to tend toward Taoism.

"I really don't know when this dynasty will worship Buddhism..." Looking at the donation and donation railings posted on the outer wall of Yuqing Palace, Jin Zhennan sighed deeply. Of course, he also knew that this was nonsense. He had heard of how much energy Buddhism spent on the East Coast and how much effort it had been made, but competition was not only Taoism, but it was an irrefutable fact. If people on the East Coast can make Buddhism, Catholicism, Protestantism, Orthodoxism, and Greenism become legal religions, it can be said that they have broad minds and amazing demeanor. They can only say that they take it slowly and look at the opportunity.

"Brother, it's a pity that you didn't go. The place in Yuqing Palace is so big." More than an hour later, several subordinates who went in to visit came out, and one of them shouted.

"Yes, the decorations inside are so grand, and the Taoist priests are also fairy-like. My brothers didn't donate money, and they smiled, and they also told us some life principles."

"After all, I am a Taoist priest from the capital. I am convinced by Lao Hu. It's amazing. Otherwise, let's buy a house and open it in the attachment of the Yuqing Palace. It should be fine."

"Fuck, where is Yuqing Palace? Can the surrounding land prices be cheaper? What's more, most people are not happy to sell it."

"It's better to rent a place to work in Nareshkin Building." After a while, someone suggested: "We only earn so much money with our heads. If we spend all of it, where can we get the capital to do business? We know banks, but the bank doesn't know us, and the loan cannot be borrowed."

After hearing what the subordinates said, Jin Zhennan was also moved. Indeed, everyone had so much money on hand. They had to buy a house and buy a property, recruit people, and also purchase supplies and keep some emergency funds. It was indeed a bit of a problem. In this case, renting a place to open a business is also a feasible strategy. It is not necessary to have Nareshkin Building, which is too famous, so the price will naturally not be cheap. It is better to find an old Spanish house that you can see. It is best to have a large area and have a warehouse, so you will almost live together.
